Bootstrap tag: RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 (unchanged from Fx2.0.0.17 & 18 & 19)

Setup before starting:

• Updated /builds/buildbot/Automation/buildbot-configs on production-1.8-master. (No change to deploy)
  • master.cfg is "Locally Modified" to contain passwords. Identical to repository version otherwise.
  • Turned off the nightly builders on production-1.8-master to make sure they don't interfere with the release. (We need to figure out how to avoid this in the future).
    • commented out "c['schedulers'].append(depend_scheduler)"
  • updated mozilla1.8 tinderbox to say "no nightlies right now"
• land change to mozilla/tools/release/configs/fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg, and move RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 tag to new revision (cvs tag -F RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11 fx-moz18-bootstrap.cfg)
• verify tinderbox checkout on automation tag
  • prometheus-vm, bm-xserve05: cd /builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox; cvs up -CPd -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
  • production-pacifica-vm: cd /cygdrive/c/builds/tinderbox/mozilla/tools/tinderbox; cvs up -CPd -r RELEASE_AUTOMATION_M11
• ensure that machines have enough resources
  • production-prometheus-vm - 30G in /
  • production-1.8-master - 30G in /builds, 19G in /data
  • production-pacifica-vm - ~31G in c:/
  • bm-xserve05 - 20G in /
